The "Golden Waterway" widens as it goes

Fujian was once an important starting point of the ancient Maritime Silk Road, and Quanzhou Citong Port was known as the "largest port in the East" during the Song and Yuan dynasties. In the early 15th century, the famous Chinese navigator Zheng He made seven ocean voyages and anchored in Fujian, waiting for the wind to open the sea, connecting sea routes with more than 30 countries and regions around the world.

Today, taking advantage of the joint construction of the "the Belt and Road", the "Silk Road Maritime Transport" is striving to build a new international trade channel linking land and sea, both at home and abroad, and east and west. The "golden waterway" is getting wider and wider.

Sri Lanka is one of the first countries to jointly build the "the Belt and Road" with China, and Colombo Port City is the representative of bilateral cooperation. Sri Lanka's Minister of State for Investment Promotion, Amunugama, said that sea transportation is an important part of global trade, and as an island country, Sri Lanka has excellent ports. "China has provided support in the field of infrastructure, and 'Silk Road Shipping' has helped Sri Lanka achieve connectivity with global shipping, making significant progress in our economic development, attracting more investors, and promoting the country's development."

Chen Zhiping, chairman of Fujian Port Group Co., Ltd., said that the "Silk Road Maritime Transport" will build a "golden waterway" connecting countries jointly building the "the Belt and Road", strengthen the development of sea rail intermodal transport, solidly promote the construction of the Southeast Land Sea Channel, realize the efficient connection between the "Land Silk Road" and the "Sea Silk Road", and promote the cooperation and development with the China Europe Train and the new land sea channel in the west.

The sea rail intermodal transport has reached a historic high every year, demonstrating strong attraction and vitality, enhancing connectivity and partnership, and deepening international investment and trade cooperation.

This year marks the tenth anniversary of the the Belt and Road Initiative. Starting from Fujian, the "Silk Road Maritime Transport" has gradually become a Chinese practice of deepening global cooperation and win-win outcomes. Fujian officials have made it clear that they will further expand opening up, make the dividends of "Silk Road Maritime Transport" more abundant, release the channel effect of "Silk Road Maritime Transport", build Xiamen BRICS New Industrial Revolution Partnership Innovation Base and China Indonesia, China Philippines "Two Country Twin Parks" project with high standards, improve the quality and level of trade and investment cooperation, and achieve common development and prosperity.
